Excellent guide and tour

Wesley_H, Jul 2023
I have travelled many locations in the world and taken many tours. Thomas was the best local guide I have ever had. This tour is an absolute must if you visit Rome. He was highly knowledge, very enthusiastic, and even brought along a photo book to shows us what the buildings or ruins looked like originally. The most complete tour I have ever been on.
